Republicans in the Montana House have voted to formally punish Democratic state Rep. Zephyr by banning her from attending or speaking during
The Montana House Legislature voted today to ban Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the house floor, depriving 11,000 constituents of a voice in debate as the Legislature moves into an extremely busy eight days of bills that should have been passed already. Zephyr will still be allowed to vote remotely, but will not be allowed to speak on any bills or even be present on the House floor. The gallery was closed as the vote took place, and will likely remain closed for the rest of the session.
